LAW REPQRT. COURT OF KINGts BENCH, Nov. 30. CON NOR V. JAMES. This was-an action brought to recover the price'of horse and cart, which were destroyed by the ne left of the defendant's servant. Mr. PARK, stated, that his client, the Plaintiff , tae - s dus:rinin, and the Defendant a merchant of 1 -•,-sre , litbility in the. city. He then related the evi dence, and said, that if hi% u itnesses proved The else. necertling to his iutrutii:als, -the Jury must give a ,-ercliel tw tie , plaintiff, who - only went for ' . seven•eet , penn4s. William Burt idge deposed, that, in the month of Febzoary last, he saw the defendant's servant driv ing his chaise-cart thronell Shoreditch, going towards London ; that he attempted to drive the • horse' be tween a waggon and a brick cart ; the cart-chaise entangled between them, there not being room for it to pass. The shafts were_broken, the horse, be ing frightened, ran away at lull speed,- carrying with him one of the shafts and a footstep. The accident was caused by the servant's attempting to drive-be tween:the waggon and the !wick-cart, where there was pot _room for ttitn to pass through: William White deposed, he was standing by the side of the plaintiff's horse and cart, at the corner of Polloway4ane, Sjloreditch; when he saw the De fendant's horse coming at full speed; he ran with .his breast against the shalt of the plaintiff, which broke, and ran through hina, and he immediately exOred. The cart, from the shock, tilted up, and the plaintiff's horse was suspended by the neck and nearly strati he died in three days afterwards. He' was WO , tii about 101. and it would cost about 31. to repair the dust-cart. 'Mr. (hallow, in defence,' observed, that the de feedant's horse' was a spirited animal, which cost 140 guineas; it took - fright, and ran away with the servant, long before the chae c ..e;cart came in•conta6t with the waggon and the brick -cart,-, in which case there could be no negle.4- - t on the part of the servant; he would prove that he did every thing in his Power . to restrain the horse; the cefendant was-a sufficient ,lo‘er already, his horse having been killed ; he would ttlll them what was the meaning of the story told t 6 them that day; for, could it be believed, that a horse being held up b; the head for two mi ratites, would cause his death ? no ; but it was to pave the defendant's horse from going a hunting, a term well known to dustmen ; not that he was to follow the hounds, but that he was to be carried' to them. He concluded, by observing, there was not that kind.of evidence before the Jury upon which *hey would he justified in giving a verdiel for the plaintiff ;' he would prove_ there was no negle& in tie case,- and the defendant would be entitled to eleir verditi. .- Henry Collins, the-defendant's servant, : who drove it he horse after-being released,, deposed, that, as ke got opposite to the front of ,S . horeditch church, the bOrse ran away with him and the chaise-cart; he valid not pull him in..or manage him ; that he hed between the waggon and the • bock-earl ; th re was not room between them ; and if he had been able to manage the horse, lie would hatie pre vented his going; the witness was ia danger of hav , iug lost his. life. , Lord ELLESBOROUGH—" Were you .accustomed to drive ?" . . . .

Lest a Juror be witlidrawn."--Wkich was.accord iii3ly done: .‘ - . HAYWOOD . V. PIPER. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL stated, this was an 2C f4111 to recover 1601. the amount of a Bill of Exchange accepted by the defendant ; he would prove the ac.. teptance, and the Jury must give a ,verdi& for the Plaintiff. John Croft proved that the acceptance was the defvudaneN writing. GArtnow—"l wilt put an end to this ac tion ; the Bill of 47,change is on a two-shilling, instead of a four-shilling stamp, on ,which account tour Lordship knows the Plaintiff must be non ;t.-d." - . .

JAMES 'WILSON, SENIOR. Mr. GAEUON stated, this Was an salon to reco ver tool, the amount of a bill of exchange ; Lee viould prove the acceptance, .atter, ‘9lich, he could not conceive what defence could be set up, except, it had been said, tilot . the.Plaintiff, in some conver , sal i.,n", said,. that money was worth ten per cent. interest. The Plaintif was a partner in the house ! Nle , srs. Calyeri and co. brewer; ; the Defend ant's son kept a . pubic-house ;he applied to the P;ainutito lend hi - ha tool. for twelve monthB,which, he slid, he would do, if the son got his father, the Defendant, to give his bill for it, The bill WaS.ob tained, and the Plaintiff paid down tool. and he was n ow DEiged to . bring - his salon for its repay, =era. The Learned Cotinselthelr.called a witness, w:1O proved the Defendant's acceptance, .and also the draw , 's James Wilson, jun. Mr. ATT9RNEY-GENERA-L, in defence, stated, Cat it his instructions - were right,:he: would prove usury in this case, which. would: for ever debar the / Plaintiff from recovering. He would hot take up the time of the Court. atad Jury, .but go to the proof • at once. James 'Wilson, jun:deposed, !hat' he had 'kept a r : ublic-hous_ , awl that the Phiitititf lent him tool. for - 1 welve months, on the joint security of him 'and his father, the Defendant. .The PlaMtiff did this to induco the _witness to get his beer from - the house 1.0/41)0N : Printed by RICHARD HARI:IS, of No. 4.

When he came to give him the money for tne bill, be said that money was ten per cent. and that the Plaintiff, when he wceiv ed the pounds, he mint return him, the Plaintiff, 51. and on - the bill, viten it became-due, would be . 51. more, which would make the 'tell per cent. hut he most'not,let hiS father, the Defendant, know that he was to pay more than lawful interest. The tenant- was present wht - n the -witness re ceived 001. in the Carolina Coffee-house, but the. Plain-tiff took the withness, 'in a few minutes after wards, into another room, and demanded the 51. which he gave him. . • On his cross:examination by Mr. GAttaw,v, he said, that he broke, about twelve months ago, .ne ver was made a bankrupt cf ; that he paid themo ney he got from the Plaintiff, tO his,, the witness's creditors; that he bad ruined his,father, who was. a farmer in the country, .more - than any other per son: Mt. GARROAr, m reply, anixpdverted on the condu& and the "testimony of the last witness, and Obierved, that he.ackno - wledged be had nearly to-. fined .his father, and, by the trumped up story. he had come forward with that day, wanted to save the Defendant from complete,ruin, and cheat the Plain tiff out of his 1001. in 7 hard cash .such a story, he was sure, the Jury would not believe, .when_ it was nnsupported - bv other evidence. L . Lord ELLENBonouota left•it to the Jury, whether they believed the testimony of Wilson, the witness, or not ? If 'they did, they must give a verdict for the Defendant, if not, it must-be - fps the Plain tiff. . The Jury, without hesitation, gave kverdia for the Plaintiff. DECEMBER 3. TOLLET V. VOLT, AND THE SAME V. STRATTON. These were actions -for assaults; the parties are hackney 7 coachmtm ; quarrelled and fought in Pic cadilly; the defendants commenced the Contest, attd verdicts were given for the plaintiff. Damages 40s. in each cause, evidently for the purpose ot carrying costs, that being the object of the Jury in each of the two cases, tor they. asked Lord Ellenborou§h how much. would . carry costs ? His Lordship told them, they were to consider Ole quantum of da mages, and assers them by the measure of injury which the plaintiff had sustained, without reference to costs ; that costs following a vcrdiet, was not for their consideration ; it ivas the cousequence of I . €lw arising out of the tact, as they should find it, either to carry costs, Or, not to carry costs, and, that was governed in adion4 tor damages by the. amount of damages; 'but, i s gally speaking; the Jury were only to consider the injury done to the plaintiff, without mixing with it the consideration of costs, which was a mere consequence of law. SHAW V. COTTLE. Mr. GARROW stated this be an aetion for an, assault. also,. but of a mOre•aggravated nature than the two which 'preceded it. The plaintiff was - a green-grocer, residing :in. the , neighboiarhood of Windmill -street, Tottenham-court-roard. " The de fendant .came to• i the plaintiff's house, and made a great disturbatice there, and infliCted on his person, a severe injury. The defendilut tollowzd a person of the name of Burton into. the Plain tiff's house, alleging, that thabundle,which Burton had under his arm, - was stolen by him ; whereas the bundle was made up of a parCel of books, which Burton had that day pbid for, and offered to shew the bill of pircels ; hut that would not do, the De,- feridant wa, determined on fighting somebody ; de clared his readiness to fight all who were in the house; Barton having, passed the Defendant and alto-, ther in .the street, thought by their look that they' wanted to .rOb him, as they followed him ; he ran into this house for protection, and the defend -ant followed him ; when they entered, the Plain titidesired them both logo into the street, and settle their dispute, and.not make his house the scene of riot and confusion, and then put his hand gently on the 'defendant, desiring him to go out, when the defen dant assaulted the Plaintiff, and itt 'treated him shamefully. They:called for a constable, and then the Defendant said he was a constable, and then he produced his staff of office.—No matter whether he was a constable or. not ; he had no right to commit assaults, if he was a constable; nor to apprehend any body„ without the authprity of a Magistrate, except upon a charge of felony, which he had not, for there was no pretence of saying that the parcel ‘vhith Burton had under his arm was'itolen. There was therefore no pretence'for this % iolence; and the Jury would make the Defendant_ pay for it ; the only ques:ion would be, what should be the amount Of the damages in this case. , William Shaw, the Plaintiff's, father, said he lived in his son's house; that between seven and . eight o'clock.in the evening of the 2d of November last, he saw a person of the name of Boron come into the house, while he, the witness, was sitting quietly by the fire-side, With the family, • arausing themselves : suddenly they heard a violent rush of a person into the. shop. The Plaintiff went to the door, and demanded the cause of it ; another rushed in after him; the mul Haan who ca; in first dared his ,tark to the..counter ; the Plaintiff asked him what he wanted—he said that. he. was pursued by two men„ whom he suspected were going to rob 'bun; on which the Plaintiff tnrned round, and the second man who came in said " D---n your eyes--L•roli you, say, roW'you." On which the Hamill took this person gently by the arm, and said, " You' • are both strangers to site; I know nothing of your business, go and settle it-in the street, .and do not disturb me in my house." He, the Defendant, im mediately said,. "-a—n your house, will go where I please ;" the Plaintiff desired him to walk out, and a seutlle ensued ; the Defendant, with an oath, said, .you shall not turn we out,. I will go where .1 please.' The Plaintiff said, "Is - there no consta ble to be got i" 'Oo.which - Burton, the man who came in first, went out to . call " Watch !" and said , he.wouhl find a constable;' on which•the Defend , ant assaulted the• Plaintiffs and they had a tussel to- gedier. Another came and asked " What .was the mat ter ?" on which the Plaintiff said, " See how he has used nue in iny own. horse; - What a blow be has given inc." The witness• did not see the - blow given. He'was iu 'another 'room, but he heap.' the ti;sel, and he heard th'. blow ; he then railed; as touchy as he could for a cohstable:. The Defendant, who-then stood in the Rissage, said, "I tma con stable of Mary-le-bone," and pulled-out - his staff; on which • the witness told him he was not then in Mary-le-bone. but St. Pancras. parish. He then stripped and asked the plaintiff if he v.:AM fight ; D---.t) your eyes, will you fight ?" putting himself in a fighting - attitude; put hip fist to the witness, a feeble old wan. " D—n your eyes, are you fighta b:e ?_ I will lick you all four, or a wholetoOm full of you." By this time a ftibb of near an hundred people had collected at the door, in, consequence of thiS vio lence and noise. The plamtiff,Put his hand up to his e)ki„, on which was the mark of a violent blow, and there was besides a wonnd on his-head, the blood. tunnit,g - down his back. ~ T he witncts.then Went away,,being feeble and afraid. Cross-examined lnj Mr. SA wvti, he said that both plaintift and defendant's clothes were torn in this scuffle. , • _ Ilichard Burton, a dealer. in books, gave an count of his having bought a, parcel of books on the day ih qut?stion,_ and of 'his passing the Defendant and another in the street. Stipecting that Obey' wanted to rob him, he ran for shelter into the. Piain- - tiff's' house, whitherthe-D2tendint'follov , 'ed him. He corroborated ,the other witness as tO the asault, and addefl, that when the story wai related at Marl borough -street .Police-office, tite . Magistrate observ ed to the Defendant—" Why, von' must have been drunk, surely." To which the Defendant: nodded and bowed assent. • Mr. JAUVIS addressed the Jury for the - D:lfetid ant.

Verdict for tlib Plaintd—Damages 201: POOL V. BZNTLY. This was an at.tion for the use and occupation of certain premises 'in s islngton,for a quarterof a year, 301. being at the rate of 1201. a year. • The ATTORNEY-GENERAL olaerved, s the written agreement on which the plaintiff claimed his tent,- was either a lease or a written , agreement ; if a lease, it had . not the right stamp, it Was a stamp of 10s, and should be 30s. and therefore, void :as a lease. If it was an agreement, it was not binding on the defendant: . • ." • Lord ELLENBOROTin held it to be a lease, with the wrong stamp, on which the plaintiff tvas non shited.' Mr. 'GA:U(3W observed it was singular enough that it was stamped this very morning ; and the party might as well have,paid tut' the right stamp to save a nonsuit, which would cost • him a good deal more 'than the difference between the • two stamps. However, if parties would . be so keedless, it was their own tault, and must be at their own txpence.s COURT OF commoN. PLEAS. SITTINGS AFTER TIEEI SEvoit.F LORD CHIEF JUSTICE . MANSFIELD, WESTMINVIEE. 131iAV Z. BL'yH. This was an aLtion to recover forty-five guineas, the value of a horse, sold by tiid Piainthr to the iendant. The plea for non-payMent pu the part of the De fendaa Was, that in eight days after he bought the horse it went blind. It couA not be proved, how ever, - that the Plaintiff had warranted the animal sound, atid of course, a verditt was given in h 6 fa vour for the price of the horse. BRAY V. lIOLDSWORTII. This was an action brought by the plaintiff in the last cause, against Mr. HUldsw'otth, late a partner in the firm condueling the London Tavern, for thirty guineas, -the. value of a" horse purc.hased by the de tendatit, who, it appeared, is a clerk in the house .of 'Mr. Cock, in Birchin-lane, and is a young wan of modern dash and fashion,, and like many of the city bucks, keeps his tandum, - thre.e horses, and a groom., • It was proved by the servant of the Plaintiff that the Defendant had applied to his master to purchase a horse to match a grey which he drove in tits tan dem, and that the animal which formed the ground of the present action was sent for his approval to the bousepf Gulley, of bruising celebrity, in Carey street, Lincolu's-Inn-tields,where the - Defendant was taking leSsons in the polite ,and elegant at t of box mg.' On seeing • the horse, he, and some of his friends, tried and approved of it ; but having kept it in his possession lot-three days, during which time he made a further idol, he returned it to the Plain- - tiff, saying, that it required too miuch of the whip to answer-. his. purpose. The Plaintiff• therefote brought his action on the ground of the Defendant having duly purchased the horse. Mr. Serjeant BEST, for the defence, called the fa ther of the defendant, who proved that his son was but hineteen'years of age, and was pursuing a career in-opposition to his wishes, and likely to terminate in his ultimate destruction. He seemed much added, and regretted in the strongest. terms the blind and unthinking profligacy of his Sir huts MANSFIELD observed, that the plaintiff should have made the- proper inquiries _ before he gave coedit to the defendant, woo, he must have known, could not,- from the nattire of his employ ment afford - to keep three horses. .1211 e plairrtiff was nonsuited on the ground_of the defendant being an infant. • Last week, a turnip of a very extraordinaryapr Pearance., was takon ttp in a 'field near Carlisle, be longing to Miss Waugh.
